As kentphil1 ^ said, the guides on the site here are brilliant. Some are a pain where the paywall has rendered the images un-viewable, but for the most part there is a lot of info and ideas in the guides.

Thanks for getting back to me. It must be something like this one?? https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/New-Auto-Aluminium-Auto-Headlight-Sensor-Switch-For-Jetta-Golf-MK4-1998-04-VW/142468536135?hash=item212bc95747:g:fK8AAOSw9KhaBSBk Does this enable the "come home" facility, where the head lights remain on until you lock the car, so you can use the lights to illuminate your way to your door? I live in the sticks, in an area with practically no streetlighting, so getting home on the dark knights is a trecherous affair, and then the inevitable fumbling for a house key and locating the lock purely by feel.

Hi Guys Long time lurker, first time poster. I am in the process of adding a number of retrofits to my 2004 Mk1 Octavia 1.9TDi. I've got my cruise control on it's way, parking sensors and rear camera (why not have both?), and I am fitting the LED puddle lights which has been documented here on the forum. I wanted to fit the auto headlight switch from the Mk4 golf. There's a whole host of sellers on Ebay offering them. However, all the posts I can find referencing this seem to be for the Mk2 octavia. Can the headlight switch be swapped out on the Mk1? I would have thought the Mk4 golf switch would be a direct swap? I have pulled the switch out of my car, and the connection on the back looks identical to the photo of the connection of those offered on ebay. For example: https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Automatic-Auto-Headlight-Sensor-Chrome-Switch-for-VW-GOLF-JETTA-MK4-1998-2004/252638634869?fits=Model%3AGolf|Plat_Gen%3AMK+IV&hash=item3ad26fa375:g:ZvkAAOSwKoRZZvX5 Many thanks in advance
